I Am Kloot,一支来自曼彻斯特的三人乐队,以其奇特的音乐作风和略带忧郁的嗓音,在自力音乐界拥有一席之地。《Storm Warning》收录于他们备受好评的专辑《Natural History》中。这首歌像是一场即将到来的风暴,又像是暴风雨后的压抑,表达了迷茫、失落,以及对未来一丝希望的庞杂情感。
歌曲配景: 歌曲用略带讥讽的口吻,描绘了主人公醉酒后的状态,以及与朋友之间的疏离。歌词中“Hell for leather, lathered, drunk, you're soused, youre pissed, your sunk”展现了颓废的一面,而“I had a call last saturday to say id thrown my friends away”则揭示了人际关系的危机。
情感与思想: 歌曲的核心在于对“storm”的隐喻。这既可以是现实中的暴风雨,也可以是生活中的困境和挑战。歌词重复询问“Is there a storm coming?”,表达了对未来的不确定感和焦虑。然而,即使面对风暴,歌曲也传递着一丝希望,暗示着风雨过后终将迎来晴天。
吉他弹奏技巧: 这首歌的吉他部分并不庞杂,适合吉他初学者。主要使用了Am, C, F, E, E7这几个和弦。Intro部分主要是分化和弦,轻柔地拨动每个和弦的根音,再加入一些其他的音符,营造出一种朦胧的感到。Verse部分可以延续intro的指法,或者稍微加强一些力度。Chorus部分可以采取扫弦的办法,增加歌曲的爆发力。E和E7和弦的转换,为歌曲增加了一些变革,可以根据小我喜好选择使用哪个和弦。需要注意的是,歌曲的情感表达主要通过节奏和力度来控制,注意把握歌曲的整体气氛。
祝你弹奏愉快!
